[QUOTE="j-jock, post: 121651, member: 11081"] [HEADING=2]Heathkit CP-1060 Capacitive Discharge Ignition (CDI) adapter box ca 1972[/HEADING] I have been using the Heathkit CD boxes (3) in all my old gas powered equipment and vehicles since 1973, and have found these kits are all I need to have a reliable, easy starting engine and yet still retain the points. If you were to go on epay, and paste the above text into the search window, you will find one currently selling for approximately $40.00. The beauty of this system, is that there is a manual available for it, that has all the information a person needs to keep the system operational. If a person bought this unit, I have a manual, and believe I also have a link to a downloadable PDF, with all the instructions a person would need to keep the unit running forever. This is the system I have been using on my Ford 1600 powered Bobcat since 1985. You mention, that someone has recommended a CD unit to solve a fuel issue, A CD unit will not solve a fuel problem, but it will solve a hard starting problem, bu providing a strong, hot spark. I don't have any personal knowledge of the Pertronix ignition systems, but am aware of a fair number of people using this system in classic cars. Bob [/QUOTE]
